Nicholas Hillyarde
in portraiture was quite a card
Lines without shadowing his thing
to miniaturists selfies he did bring
Remember, remember the sixth of December
And put your red boots out
Because that is the very special day
When St Nicholas is about

Nicholas Hilliard - a painter,slf taught
became pricipal portraitist at court
He loved to paint+ by passing note
accumulated the popular financial vote
OH - nonny, NO - nonny
Nicholas Goalsworthy
Promised again to
Renounce alcohol.
Characteristically
Incomprehensible,
Muttering epithets,
Cursing the wall.
Each morning, Saint Nicholas did rise
to a loud jingle jangle surprise
He went where the deer dwell
and removed each one's bell
surely that is a No Bell Peace Prize
My prince, hold your poetry close,
for it shall keep you company.
It will bring you beautiful serenity.
Locked away in the castle of your mind,
I will continue to climb.

Award-winning actor Nicholas Cage -
“Cappola” he was born with. “Cage” is for stage!
He made a quest to find the Holy Grail.
No news of that; it must have been a fail.
Normady's Nicholas Poussin*
painted baccalalia now&then
An artist unafraid to let his hair down
so many took him to be a bit of a clown

There was a young man named Dick Nicholas,
whose girl's breasts were udderly ridic'lous.
She was so well endowed;
she embarrassed the cows.
Yet, Dick loved her 'cause she was ticklish.
Nicholas Poussin had long hair
painting sculptured nudes with great care
His work was biblical&sound
appearing dark as he used red ground*

wind carries the cries
of lost souls departed hence.
Claimed in the white foam
of a turbulent spring tide....
St Nicholas* comforts them
* St Nicholas patron saint of sailors
penned 31 March 2015
St. Nicholas was a right merry ol’ soul
Making children happy was his entire life's goal,
With a pack full of toys
For all good girls and boys
For centuries, his dedication we extol.

Its always at this time of year
That you let us know of your fear
You refuse to listen
To Donner und Blitzen*
Although it is only rain, dear!
* German: Donner = thunder
Blitzen = lightning, Saint Nicholas/Santa

Hair so red
Locks like fire
Nicholas is here
Growing desire
He laughs so loud
But so soft spoken
Leaves my class
Forever broken
Wait five days
Can hardly stand it
Show him memes
I'm reprimanded
Kill the teacher
Hide the body
Back to Nick
Total hottie

Sadness, overwhelming, to come to grips
with such an unpleasant reality
such as this.
To realize, my prince, I was not
your first wish, albeit your first kiss.
I should be sadder, I admit, but it's no surprise
to me, I am not the first to gaze lovingly into
your olive green eyes.

On the twelfth day of Christmas
St. Nicholas gave to meeee
Twelve pizza pies
Eleven pigs in a sty...
Ten hooting owls
Nine golden fowls
Eight barking dogs
Seven leaping frogs
Six poets dancing
Five reindeer prancing
Four bottles of rum...
Three sets of drums
Two stinging bees....
And a unicorn just for PD

Dear Nicholas,
I write to you as I wonder
what delights I have to ponder
a gift that was given unto me
that has blessed me more than the eye can see
you stole me away from fear
and held me until I was near
the whispered thoughts only for me
are what you want to be
I wish to never lose this
or I will be left in abyss.
Saint Nicholas is given credit for all the Christmas fun

Acrostic Play 2 Holiday Version
I'm still trying to catch up
loving the way you make me feel
I need to sit back
and take in all that I have
all that I want with you
Every night I go home
I feel that I was in a dream
but I need to look closer
at what I see
I see how you love me
and I can't help but smile
Please don't let me forget
but look deeper and remember
the way you look at me
Love
A one syllable- four letter word
That we all claim to share
But in reality know very little
about.
Sought after like a diamond-
But diamonds don't come close,
Because the rarity of love has
proven true!
For when we seek out love-
We have a better chance to
strike it rich,
with handfuls of the brilliant
stone found in love's place.
By Nicholas A. Bello
Who's the big fat reddest suit
the children shout excited.
Who'll take presents from his bag
and hand them proof enlighted.
Who shouts ho
fat ho fat ho
Laughs for children
brash and brough.
Cracks the whip of Christmas Spirit
Beckons kids to sit and stare at.
Fuels the weir for Christmas wishes.
and calls communion Saint Nick Merrit.
JOLLY OLD SAINT NICHOLAS
Maybe it wasn't supposed to be
But it is.
They tried to make it hard but its so easy
They shot and miss'd
They were told it couldn't work
But it does.
They gathered-in the dark where they lurk
To stop Love.
But they were blind
And We saw
What they do to their kind
So we cut them raw
They lived and saw what love can do
So they told the tale of me and you.
By Nicholas A. Bello
